The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), part of the Department of Health and Human Services, submitted an Information Collection Request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for the 340B Drug Pricing Program's Administrative Dispute Resolution process. This process helps resolve disputes between drug manufacturers and covered entities, like hospitals, over drug pricing. For 30 days, the public can submit comments on this request. HRSA adjusted the expected number of dispute requests from 10 to 15 for the next three years and responded to public feedback on the estimated time burden and document requirements for filing a dispute.
Simple Explanation
The HRSA wants to know what people think about a new way to fix arguments over medicine prices between drug makers and hospitals. They are letting everyone say what they think for a month before making a final decision.
